Your invitations to mission, community and formation this week:
1… Link o’ the week… A Rocha is a Christian nature conservation organization, our name coming from the Portuguese for “the Rock,” as the first initiative was a field study centre in Portugal. A Rocha projects are frequently cross-cultural in character, and share a community emphasis, with a focus on science and research, practical conservation and environmental education.
2… Fall Retreat… October 15 & 16. Register online now! Because life is too busy, and Jesus says, “Peace! Be still!” We’ll be at Shepherd’s Fold and we’re planning on high ropes course, zip line, along with some worship time and teaching about spiritual disciplines. Sign up before September 25 and the cost is just $45 (after that it’s $58). You won’t want to miss it.
3… Campus visits… OU: Peter and Samantha will be in Norman on Wednesday. We’ll be hanging out in the Schooner room in the student union (where the wagon is) between 11 and 3. Hope you can drop by and say hi.
4… Hope for Creation… This Wednesday we continue the Blessed Earth video series from Dr. Matthew Sleeth. Starts at 6:30 in room YFC 212. Look for the Fiftyeight banner at the end of the hallway.
5… Table Talk… Sunday, 10:55 am, 4th floor gym of the sanctuary building at the church. There’s good food, good people, and an exploration of faith and the college life. This week we continue our series “Everything is Spiritual.” We’ll talk about friendship, and how your relationships are part of your spiritual life.
Questions? Let me know. Heaps of blessings on you all. Know you are prayed for this week.
Final thought…
